Live the Life You Plan to Live

Aspen. Jackson Hole. Whistler. The names alone can send us into daydreams of thigh-deep pow, cabin living, and new powder skis. Dreaming and scheming is the fun part, but we’re asking the tough question: are you living the life you’ve planned to live?

Let’s be honest, it’s not easy. Big-ticket dreams require discipline and smart, long-term investments—and knowing where to start can be half the challenge. All the while, we also need new snow tires, new gear and want to enjoy life’s simple pleasures like a post-ski brew and a burger at the lodge.

SKI recently had the opportunity to chat with Glint co-founders Jason Cozens and Ben Davies about the advantages of gold for secure long-term savings, hassle-free international travel, and inflation-resistant daily spending.

What’s Glint? A new debit card and app that enables any regular Joe or Jane to protect their wealth by purchasing physical gold. With the Glint card and app, you can instantly own gold bullion that is stored in Brinks vaults, insured by Lloyds of London, and available for withdrawal at any shop or ATM that accepts Mastercard®—without the usual bank fees or an expensive investment advisor.

How does that translate to your goals?

Ski in, ski out. Property can be a really hard thing to save for, particularly in popular places like ski resorts and, as with anything, there can be sudden jumps in value. That’s why gold is the ultimate option, adds Davies.

“Gold is a known constant upon which you can plan for your future. If you’re saving with Glint, your money will keep its value and protect your dream.” There’s never a bad time to invest in gold. "Glint makes it super easy,” says Cozens. “There’s no minimum purchase, and from now until you retire your money will be safe. You won’t get there and find your cash has lost value. Saving has never been safer."

Over the last 50 years gold has appreciated, on average, 8% a year. Our experts estimate that a monthly deposit of $100 USD over 20 years amounts to $24,000 in a standard debit account, while that same deposit has the potential to grow to $50,000 in a Glint gold account.

That's one step closer to the A-frame of your dreams.
